Attributes
Software as a Medical Device
Intended Use
IPS CaseDesigner is indicated for use as a software and image segmentation system for the transfer of imaging information from a scanner such as a CT scanner. It is also indicated to support the diagnostic and treatment planning process of cranio-maxillofacial procedures. IPS CaseDesigner facilitates the service offering of individualized surgical aids.
Device Story
IPS CaseDesigner is a 3D image-based software tool for virtual planning of orthognathic surgery. Input consists of patient CBCT/CT data (DICOM). Surgeons use the software to plan osteotomies (Le Fort I, Sagittal Split, Ramus, Chin) by virtually cutting and repositioning bone fragments in 3D space. The software provides 2D/3D visualization, measurement tools, and soft tissue simulation to predict post-operative appearance. Output includes surgical splint order files sent to a manufacturing facility for production of patient-specific surgical aids. Used by oral and maxillofacial surgeons in clinical settings to facilitate surgical planning and improve patient outcomes through precise, individualized surgical guidance.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by software verification and validation testing conducted in accordance with FDA guidance for software contained in medical devices.
Technological Characteristics
Software-based surgical planning tool; runs on Windows 64-bit and Mac platforms. Inputs: DICOM CT/CBCT data, generic 3D models (STL). Functions: 2D/3D visualization, distance/angle measurement, bone fragment manipulation (translation/rotation), soft tissue simulation, and surgical splint order file generation. Standalone software application.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as a software and image segmentation system for the transfer of imaging information from a scanner (e.g., CT) to support diagnostic and treatment planning for cranio-maxillofacial procedures, including orthognathic surgery.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management.

# IV. Device Description
The IPS CaseDesigner software is a tool for the virtual planning of orthognathic surgery. The user is a (oral and maxillofacial) surgeon who needs to plan an orthognathic surgery, and will use the software to plan the osteotomy (bone cutting). This allows the surgeon to re-position the digitally cut pieces in the desired alignment and allows the visualization of how the patient aspect will look like, through soft tissue simulation. The software supports various types of osteotomy procedures (Le Fort I, Sagittal Split, Ramus and Chin).The selection of the appropriate osteotomy procedure for each patient case is at the discretion of the clinician.
The IPS CaseDesigner is a 3D image-based environment that allows the clinician to visualize a patient's anatomy. The creation of the 3D augmented patient model is derived from CBCT (Cone-Beam CT) data (DICOM). This allows the clinician virtually plan and simulate a craniomaxillofacial surgery. The IPS CaseDesigner software has the capability to save a surgical splint file that the clinician can send to the manufacturing facility for surgical splint creation based on the CBCT Data. The software does not have any functionality for designing.
# V. Indications for Use
IPS CaseDesigner is indicated for use as a software and image segmentation system for the transfer of imaging information from a scanner such as a CT scanner. It is also indicated to support the diagnostic and treatment planning process of cranio-maxillofacial procedures. IPS CaseDesigner facilitates the service offering of individualized surgical aids.
#### Discussion
The Indications for Use statement between the subject and predicate devices are equivalent; minor differences in wording do not alter the intended therapeutic use of the subject device nor do they affect the safety and effectiveness of the subject device relative to the predicate. Both the subject and predicate devices are software devices intended for the transfer of medical images and to support diagnostics and treatment planning of cranio-maxillofacial procedures.
#### VI. Comparison of Technological Characteristics
The subject and predicate devices are software based surgical planning tools which allow for transfer of medical images, and creation of 3D models.
A comparison of the subject and predicate devices is provided in the table below.

#### Performance Data VII.
The following performance data were provided or relied upon in support of the substantial equivalence determination.
# Software Validation
Software verification and validation testing was conducted on the subject device and documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices".
{7}------------------------------------------------
# VIII. Conclusion
Although there are minor differences in the indications for use statements and technological features of the subject and predicate devices, the testing supports that these differences do not raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness. Therefore, it is concluded that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the cited predicate devices.
